Nina Dawn

(Previously published in the 90 day multi-author anthology It's Not The Size Of the Story That Matters...)I promised I’d be good…and then I wasn’t…For two years, I’ve wanted what I can never have- Tanner, the incredibly hot director of my college dorm. He’s a lot older than me, he’s the strong silent type, and I dream about breaking through his controlled demeanor.My dreams about him- whew- steamy doesn’t even begin to describe them.Unfortunately, I know my dreams aren’t grounded in reality- I’m shy, nerdy and not exactly a cute little thing. According to my snooty roommate, plus-sized is just a polite way of describing someone who’s never going to have a chance with a guy, let alone a guy like Tanner.But things seem like they’re about to change the night I stay out late during finals week…The stern, possessive look Tanner gives me when I try sneaking back into the dorm… it’s a look I’ve never seen on his face before… and I like it.I’ve always been so good, but being bad just this once seems to have perks that I’d never imagined…Tanner couldn’t possibly be interested in me, could he?And how far am I willing to go to find out?
